DIAGONALS
Interactive Installation
Montréal
with Théodore Ushev
DIAGONALS is a three-metre high steel monolith that detects scratching on its surface and reacts with an audiovisual interpretation of three Norman McLaren films: horizontal lines, vertical lines and synchromy.
McLaren (1914 – 1987) scratched magnetic tape to create and synchronize sounds to images on film. This piece is inspired by his work and technique.
